Barden Love

Songs and Drama

Stacie and Emily had been back together for a good while now but none of Emily's friends knew except for Alexia and Aubrey off course. Not that she didn't trust her friends enough to tell them but she knew that if she did tell them the first thing they'd tell her to do is break up with Stacie. Beca on the other had would be furious with Emily and Stacie. So keeping it secret was the best option for both of them and deep down Emily enjoyed the thrill of keeping it a secret even if she wouldn't say it out loud.

Emily was in her room writing down a new song she just had to get out of her system, when she heard a knock on her door.

"Come in!" She yelled to whoever was on the other side of the door.

"Hey sis, what're you up to?" asked a smiling Beca as she walked in to the room.

"Just writing. I had this idea for a song stuck in my head for awhile now, so I decided to put it on plain paper." Emily smiled.

"Really? What's the song about?" Beca said getting a bit intrigued and sitting down next to her sister on the bed.

"Not much really." Emily said with a nervous smile.

"Dude, seriously stop being so nervous about your songs. We both know your songs are the bomb. Let me see." Beca said reaching for the note book to see the lyrics of Emily's new song.

Beca read through the first few verses and smiled at her sister who looked a bit unsure of herself. Beca gave Emily a big hug, to the young girl's surprise.

"I'm guessing you like it?" Emily asked her sister with a smile.

"Like it? Emily I love it! How do you even come up with these things?!" Beca smiled at her sister.

"The same way you come up with music." Emily shrugged.

"Tell you what. Why don't you finish this and I can get a beat for it. How does that sound?" Beca said with one of her rare smiles.

"That would be awesome actually. Are you sure you want to do it though?"

"Yes! And maybe you can ask Jesse to make you a music video." Beca smiled at how Emily's face lit up.

"Really?!"

"Really. You know it's funny how different you become when it comes to your songs. When we talk about volleyball or anything else you are super confident but when we talk about your songs you become super shy. Why?"

"I guess it's because writing songs was the only thing my mom always helped me do. So when someone asks me about a song I wrote I worry it's not as good as the ones I wrote with my mom." Emily shrugged and looked down at her hands.

"Em, you're an awesome song writer and your mom knew that. She was helping you because you were the worst speller on earth." Beca smirked and Emily hit her on the arm.

"I wasn't that bad."

"Who spells 'cheer' as 'chearr'?" Beca asked while laughing.

"I was five!!" Emily fought back.

"That doesn't explain the two 'r's. Even I knew that there was one of those."

"Whatever dork!" Emily smiled at her laughing sister.

"Tell me when you're done with your song, okay?" Beca said and Emily smiled and nodded.

Emily finished her song about twenty minutes later and Beca chose a beat for the song and she even found a way to convince Jesse to come up with ideas for a music video.

Emily walked into Beca's room so that she can tell her she finished the song. "Hey Becs, I'm done writing."

"Good cause I have a beat and your brother has his camera ready to shoot a video when we're done recording." Beca smiled.

"Recording? You're going to sing the song?" Emily asked confused.

"Nope but you are. You have a great voice and I'm not taking no for answer." Beca said to her sister.

"Fine. Let's start recording then." Emily said giving up and sitting down with Beca and her equipment to record her song.

A few hours of Emily singing, Beca mashing up her voice  and emily's phone constantly getting text alerts they finally finished the song and took it down stairs for the rest of their family to hear.

"That was awesome you two!" Bryce yelled.

"Now all we have to do is get started on that video." Beca smiled.

"What video?" asked a confused Sofia.

"I'm going to make a music video for this song." Jesse smiled proudly.

"When can we see it?!" Bryce asked very excited.

"It takes a long time to make a music video but I'll tell you when I'm done editing it. All I need is you to give me and my friends permission to shoot it at school after classes."

"Okay?" Bryce said a bit surprised that Jesse asked for his permission.

"Thanks dad." Jesse was just about to ask Emily something when she got a text from someone. Beca looked at the phone annoyed  but  soon looked at Emily with disbelief and anger.

"Why the hell are you texting Stacie?!"

"Wait, you're texting with Stacie?!" Jesse asked with equal disbelief.

"Can you two stop yelling so I can explain, please?" Emily asked the two.

"Please, explain to us why you're texting heart emojis to the person who used you and broke your heart?!" Beca yelled furious with Emily.

"Because I never got over her okay?! We've been back together for awhile now and I didn't tell you because I know you can't stand Stacie." Emily explained.

"Emily, we didn't mean for you to feel like you can't trust us we-" Jesse got cut off by an angry Beca.

"You can't just go behind our backs and mess around with Stacie again. I don't care what your heart says trust me it's stupid. So now choose are you gonna make the same mistake again or are you gonna be smart for the first time in your life?!"

"I'm not gonna make the same mistake because Stacie actually means it this time!" Emily yelled.

"You know what?! Do whatever you want but just know that if she hurts you again, you are on your own because I don't care!!" Beca yelled and Emily ran up to her room crying.

"Beca!!!" Bryce yelled angry at Beca for saying that.

"What?! She's the one signing up to get hurt allover again." Beca said a bit frustrated.

"Yes, maybe just maybe she is but it's your job as her sister to be there for her if this is a mistake. I get why you're mad but we both know that Emily believes in second chances more than anyone. She gave that to Stacie and if by any chance it is a mistake she has to know that she always has you. Then you go and abandon her?!" Jesse said as he walked past Beca to go check on Emily. Leaving Beca alone with her thoughts.
